Hello everyone,

What is the most efficient & simpliest way to convert all components of a
list to separate columns in a matrix?

Is there an easy way to programmatically "pad" the length of the resulting
shorter character vectors so that they can be easily combined into a data
frame?

I have the following code that stores the 2 compoents (of differing
lengths) in the same character vector:

more<-c('R is a free software environment for statistical computing',
         'It compiles and runs on a wide variety of UNIX platforms')
result<-strsplit(more,' ')
result
mode(result)
class(result)
sapply(result,length)
result2<-unlist(result)
result2
mode(result2)
class(result2)

Thank you,

Dan
